MUI NE (VNS) — Mui Ne in the southern province of Binh Thuan ranks second among the world's best sand-boarding destinations, according to infotainment blog wonderslist.com, which has listed the "World's 10 Best Sand-boarding Destinations".

"This recreational activity thrives mostly in the desert and coastal areas where there is an abundance of sand dunes," it says helpfully.

"This place is much less popular for this sport compared to counterparts elsewhere."

Only Duna Grande in Ica of Peru is ahead of Mui Ne, which is followed by Tattori in Japan, Lucky Bay in Australia, Cerro Negro active volcano in Nicaragua, The Valle de la Muerte in Chile, the desert in Dubai, Sossusvlei in Namibia, Sandmaster Park in the US, and Hirschau in Germany. — VNS
